Thanks again for trusting in our products and putting out great videos on them! Seeing Caden give a 10/10 star rating on fit, finish, and install is exactly what we are shooting for on all of our products!
Love seeing Dave teach young people like Caden to excel in their job and be proud of what they accomplish. Caden did a great job and made it look easy.
They all have their problems, the thing is, most diesel pickups are grocery getters, it's a prestige thing, "Hey, look what I got". I have a 2007 F250, 5.4L gas, creeping up on 300,000 miles, it never complains, never breaks, just gets me where I'm going everyday with no fuss. The only thing diesel pickups ever did, was raise the price of diesel fuel, years ago, before the diesel pickup fad came along, diesel fuel was about 1/3 the price of gasoline. And 2 or 3 times the cost of changing the oil in a gas motor, along with the other ongoing issues. I already have a high maintenance wife, I don't need a truck to match
I do not comprehend people who drive enormous diesel trucks as commuter vehicles. I guess people want to be poor forever with their 800 per month payments.
Thankfully the gas motors in 2500s have come a long way since your 5.4 so even for heavier towing applications you can go the gas route safely in many cases.
Just a great quality company holding everyone accountable. I like that. I’ll pay more upfront to a business that cares about their workmanship and does it right so I’m not getting screwed. Unfortunately, you don’t see many shops like this anymore. A real shame to have to say that.
Dave, I have installed a few of those now. Had a newer F word in a blue oval come in with a no start. Turns out, the CP4 went to the Bahamas on the poor guy. That was a stupedo expensive repair bill. After doing the repair, including a mortgage prevention kit, he had us do his entire fleet. Annnnnd added in Frantz oil filtration kits on all of them. Seems they are doing well since having done the above. The guy is still bringing their fleet to us for routine inspections and services. The best part, these vehicles are spotless everywhere, even under the hood and under vehicle. Makes performing a service and inspection a blessing! Duramax, Ram and Ford corporate engines. I appreciate you, Dave and Co.!!
I installed that S&S DPK on my 2016. Much easier access if the CCV filter box and EGR cooler are removed, which I still haven't found time to reinstall. And just to add issues, my DPF and DEF mysteriously disappeared.
Ram had the CP4 on the MY’19-‘20. Then went back to the CP3 ‘21 to present. Stallantis also did a recall on those MY ‘19-‘20 to replace back to the CP3. Ford currently only one utilizing CP4 on the 6.7’s of heavy duty trucks.
Caden is a good tech, you can tell he takes his time and does the job right! Dave, give him a pay raise! Hard to find good working employees these days 😀
Thanks for all your vidios Dave! I put a cp3 conversation kit in my 2011 Duramax about 4 years ago from s&s diesel and a transfer pump they recommended. All working well.
16:46 Great job Caden!!! He is learning from the best!!! Señor Dave is the best teacher in mechanics You guys keep up the great content!!! Saludos!!!👋😃👋
@@DavesAutoCenterCenterville I like to see a young guy with those skills and doing great things instead of doing bad things like just hanging with the gangs…keep up the great work!!! Saludos!!!👋😴👋💤👋
2013 duramax lml...putting on my 2nd s&s replacement cp4. Truck has 300k. Hasn't gone out yet but, I like to be ahead of the carnage. Thinking if s&s has a kit for Chevrolet by now.... I'll hafta holler at them
I seen where a Ford Tech who does this repair quite often, ask: are you going to trust this kit to have prevented all the metal from going thru the system and just slam a new pump on? I believe it's a valid question. Also, this pump is used also on Duramax's but very little is mentioned about that, how come???
The wealth of knowledge that young man is learning is awesome! My grandparents owned a house in Farmington Utahand I lived in Bountiful in the 80s now I live in Houma Louisiana ROCK ON MAN
this is the very first thing that should be installed on a ford 6.7 is the s&s dpk the second it leaves the lot brand new or used absolute must and life saver along with a ccv route kit as well
My buddy’s dad just spent 16 k on a whole new fuel system and pump because of a pump failure!! The truck is only worth 16k! My advice is change the pump, flush the system and trade it in immediately!!
Great video! I just bought a 2019 F250 with a 6.7 super duty. It has 58K on it, do i need a disaster kit also? I don’t know very much about diesel, bought it to pull the RV, Thanks!
Honest question, have you ever had a failed CP4 pump that has this kit on it and the pump failed? So you know exactly what does or does not get contaminated when it fails with the kit installed?
I gotta say… I'm so happy to get out of work and have a new Dave's Auto video. With that out-of-the-way, I also gotta say… Why even bother owning a diesel? It's just seems to be nightmare after nightmare after nightmare…
It’s worth it if you tow a lot but yes diesels are high maintenance trucks, my transmission just went out on my 2018 f250 6.7 210k miles, it’s gonna cost me 12k to replace it at Ford. I’m very upset about it lol
So after watching this I was wondering what it cost to have this done? I know it's less than $10000! Am interested in this just need to know how much I need to start saving up. Thanks.
It seems to me that Diesel trucks perform better than gas but have SO many things to either go wrong or would benefit from an upgrade. Is it a toss up on which one to buy?
I remember back in the day I could replace my 6.2 or 6.5 diesel with a complete crate engine for less than the price of a fuel system today…there was something to be said about the old tech diesels…they weren’t power houses but they were good on fuel, cheap to buy and maintain, and reasonably reliable!…if someone told me 25 years ago that diesel pickups would have 500hp and 1200lbs of torque I would have said they were crazy!…I still think it’s crazy to be honest!…
Just bought a 2011 LML with 77k miles Riding around in sheer terror now. Mile by mile what y’all gonna charge me to prevent it destroying the whole fuel system? I’ll drive it to you all the way from central Louisiana if you can fit me in.
The bolt under the ebp can be a pain on the 20 & up trucks, snap on 8mm wiggle socket and a long 1/4in extension get it every time no matter what year model 6.7
On the gm's if the fuel gauge gets wornky shut it down ASAP! Its bronze glitter collecting on the send unit ! Do this before the injectors take a major crap ! Then all is needed is cleaning the pipes then replace the pump ! And always use a good fuel additive !
I used to work on airplanes. My pinkies got a workout because everything was so tight/crowded, so I quit to work on diesels. I'm going back to airplanes.
Dave. Im from the netherlands. I Watch all of you videos. Use them for education. I have a Audi A4 with a 3.0 diesel engine. It has also a CP4 pump. Do they fail to? Or is this just an issue on those heavy trucks?
I don't understand how some trucks have such filthy egr systems. I just did their bypass valve on my 2011 duramax. It has 175k on it so I figured I'd be in for a real mess. I was shocked to find everything was very clean. Aside from minor dusty soot covering the surface everything was very clean. The bypass valve wasn't stuck from sludge and just stopped functioning. I do use a splash of marvel mystery oil at every fillup but I would think that would make for more smoke and thus soot. As for my cp4 so far so good. I never let my fuel tank get low and use the additives.
I have a 2016 GMC Canyon with the Duramax 4 cylinder diesel. I wish you would do a video on one of these. I see the aftermarket twin fuel filters… thoughts…?
Hey Dave, what if you use the old school method of adding a quart automatic transmission fluid in your fuel tank on a full tank and maybe that will give you enough lubrication. What do you think?
This is fine for all the big boys with lots of aftermarket support. How about us Euro diesel guys still limping our audi and vw's with minimal support since dieselgate. Would love a cp4 solution for an Audi 3.0 tdi
Hey Dave, love your channel, how much does your shop charge to perform this swap? I want to drive from CA to you to have it done to my truck. Or can you tell me how much an hour for labor you charge, so I can estimate for myself. I know this is at least a 10 hour job from what I have seen on youtube.
thought you were going to remove the rear bumper to get that intake out of there... If the fuel pump is a known failure point, this disaster prevention kit should already be installed at the factory.
Sadly its profits and greed that run our economy, not quality and reliability. Untill we fundamentalally change our society and economy this will continue
One has to ask… what ever took out the pump has been going through the system for awhile. (Water def rust) So let’s say you find rust on your grenaded CP4 pump. With the protection kit installed it prevented shrapnel going into the high press side of the system. If there rust on the pump you can bet there’s rust down steam in the rails, lines, injectors ect… you should probably replace the whole system anyway. If not the fuel sys will Nickel and dime you to death until you do.

Impressive marketing, I give you that. Got the masses fearing the cp4 like the plague.
Looking to see if I can fit that kit on a 2013 duramax lml. Maybe a little modification? Would like to know your thoughts.
Looking for the same info as @ronnieboit4081
@ronniebenoit4081 In your case they make a cp3 kit for the duramax. That's your best bet. Cp3 flows tons more than dcr and cp4.
@HSKFabrications well there's multiple class action lawsuits over the CP4. They are junk.
These guys did a great job. How do I know? Thats my truck in the video. I’m very satisfied with their work. And it’s cool to see my truck on RUclips.
Good to hear from you! Thanks for coming to our shop 👍
How much for the kit? And installation?
Can you please tell me how much it cost? I have a 2016 duramax lml and need this done, I need to know how much money to save.

It's great seeing Dave's young mechanics working on diesel truck based on Dave's teaching and trouble shooting habits.

I do not comprehend people who drive enormous diesel trucks as commuter vehicles. I guess people want to be poor forever with their 800 per month payments.
The cost went through the roof when the epa did the low sulphur, and now ultra low sulphur. It costs a lot of money to get that stuff out.
I would love to see diesel hybrids for grocery getters or for the wife. Imagine something like a ford Maverick with a VW 1.9 TDI.
A friend who is retiring, studies what diesel particulates do to your lungs, it is not good. They studied cab exposure it is worse.
Thankfully the gas motors in 2500s have come a long way since your 5.4 so even for heavier towing applications you can go the gas route safely in many cases.
Good job, Caden! If you treat Dave like obi wan and absorb everything he tells you, you will be one of the best mechanics out there.
Or he will become Anakin lol

Thats gutsy going after those exhaust bolts with an impact! Always use hand tools and a good penetrating oil (50/50 acetone and ATF is my go to).
Should stuff a rag in those open engine pipes ! Love these videos Dave and crew !

I’m curious to know what’s that beautiful two tone ‘99 F-250 in the shop for in the next stall over.
As always great video. To help save the fuel system and add some lubrication what if any fuel additives does Dave recommend? Thanks
Alejandro gets the next cp4 job haha
Could you also just add lubrication to the fuel to avoid bad things happening? Or is this the type of thing recommended be installed regardless?

Can you give us an idea of what a dcr pump and install job would cost if you were to do the job .
So would have been more beneficial to just remove the air dam/windshield motor housing(?) to have easier access?
Hey Caden, you would like working on mine as there’s no pollution crap ! Runs beautiful !
You are missing the point. Your entire truck is pollution crap.
Is there any chance that a similar kit can be created for GM or Dodge vehicles or are there clearance issues there also?

Sadly its profits and greed that run our economy, not quality and reliability. Untill we fundamentalally change our society and economy this will continue
That would mean the manufacturer/dealership would lose out on you having to go back and spend a fortune on repairs. Why would they want to do that???
There is no money installing it from the factory, they want job security not trucks that last forever
👍
What would be the cost differential between the S&S Kit and replacing the CP4 with the CP3.3 as RAM did regarding it's recall on the CP4?
What about a supposed CPX option?
How much is this kit installed by a mechanic
the new filter mount didn't seem that solidly mounted. seems like it might be easy to break off if the filter is a little sticky coming off.
$2k for the DCR and call it a day.
